Ayers Farms
Photos
​

My love for capturing photos started on my family's farm. I got my first, turquoise blue, Kodak camera in elementary school, and upgraded to a Nikon DSLR camera in college. Now, I have the opportunity to play with the mirrorless models through work. When I am home, you can still find me doing chores, fixing fence, in the hayfield or checking cows in the ranger with my dad and brother - all with my camera in tow. 

 

This gallery is just a handful of the photos I've captured over the years! 

Livestock Marketing Association
Photos
​

Growing up, I made several trips to the salebarn in town. On early trips, my eyes were always set on a hot beef plate and a piece of pie with grandpa. As I got older, I focused more on helping with the selection process (if we were buying). 

Working for the Livestock Marketing Association allowed me to capture moments in livestock markets across the nation- from the trailers parked out front, to the livestock penned in the back, and all points in between. And occasionally, I catch a reminder of my childhood through the curious eyes of a farm kid, watching the sale from dad or grandpa's lap.

Allison Coats - 2021 Missouri State Fair
Photos
​

Allison, my cousin, shares a similar love for the Missouri State Fair as I do. If you haven't been there, it's hard to tell these photos are taken there. But for the MSF regulars, I bet you'll recognize a few of these backdrops!

Halli Ritter - 2020 Mizzou Grad
Photos
​

My former, college roommate, Halli, asked me to take a few senior photos of her, and I jumped at the opportunity.

 

It was so much fun getting to capture her genuine and classic personality in these photos. But let's be honest - she made my job pretty easy!
